Hegemony or Survival Where is the best place on earth to live? What country gives power to the people? What country is “the land of the free?” If you answered the United States of America, then you may have to read this book. It’ll have you thinking twice about these question’s answers. From Cover to back, this book is filled with facts that could easily put you in shock. Did you know that Al-Qaeda literally transfers to “The Database?” Al-Qaeda was originally the computer file of the thousands of Mujahideen who were recruited and trained with help from the CIA to defeat the Russians around post-World War II times.
Have you ever stopped to consider the fact that the US has been partaking in terrorism along with the Middle Eastern people? Let’s look. According to a US army manual, terrorism is “the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to attain goals that are political, religious, or ideological in nature…” and the British government’s definition of terrorism is “the use, or threat, of action which is violent, damaging or disrupting, and is intended to influence the government or intimidate the public and is for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, or ideological cause.”
Now, can our presence in the Middle east not be categorized as terrorism with our own definitions? We are using “actions of violence” to “influence the government” and “attain goals that are political,” these political goals being “the war on terror.” Now we use a euphemism on this phrase, calling it “counter-terrorism.”
These are two quick examples of extremely interesting facts featured in this book, with many more inside. One can say that Hegemony or Survival is very biased, but Noam Chomsky isn’t some bum from to many drugs. Everything in this book is sourced and reliable. Now, you may be wondering why this book is worth saving. I believe that people should see through illusions created by governments. The world isn’t not as pretty as they make it seem. So people need to stop relying on these false institutes, so that next generation civilizations can learn from our not-yet-learned mistakes. The world will be a happier place once this step is attained.
